in #nature7 years ago

The phenomenon of lateral clouds is technically known as lenticularus, Is a strange pull configuration that is formed whenever strong winds blow through rough terrain and surrounding areas.

Some people misunderstood it as a kind of flying saucer but this is a fairly common illusion. The strong winds that flowed through the surrounding mountain peaks, leading to "waves" in the atmosphere only to the wind from each of the top. With air humidity containing enough middle and upper levels, You find that the lunar clouds formed in the region where the "wave" was peaking.

These clouds are also a sign that there are two currents between them
